Maybe that's it! Maybe to mark our 15th anniversary, in tribute to when we started back in 1999 as a 5-a-side team, we've shrunk back down to a 5-a-side squad again?
Two Thursdays in a row. Thursdays: Accies football night since 1999. £250 of club money set aside for the members to get together and not play football, but instead enjoy each other's company, drink, eat and enjoy world-class football*.
Six members turned up last week. Five members and an ex-member turned up last night. In total, SEVEN out of TWENTY-ONE current members attended across the two weeks.
I shall have to resist the urge to rant. I'm sure the other FOURTEEN members had perfectly legitimate reasons for not attending either event. Maybe you weren't actually able to watch the England game at all? (Seems reasonably unlikely.)
Suffice it to say, in 15 years I've rarely felt less in love with the club. Good luck looking me in the eye next time you see me. I wasn't surprised to see so few of you there last week and this week.
Some of you who weren't there are magnificent gentlemen and lifelong friends who have certainly made my life better over the past years and this post is not aimed at you. Some of you have certainly done a LOT to make the club better and help it thrive.
But some of you just can't be bothered, can you?
See you next Thursday for a 5-a-side?
Cheers,
Stuart
